Breedlove

House of Musical Traditions has been a Breedlove dealer for close to 20 years, and we are the only Distinctive Dealer in the mid-Atlantic; offering some of the largest in-stock selection in the area. We appreciate their attention to quality and detail on their entire range of instruments - including their imported models - as well as their strong commitment to using sustainable woods and environmentally-friendly practices. From their introductory and intermediate lines on up to the Custom Shop and Masterclass instruments, Breedlove displays a care for detail, tone and innovation not found in many other brands.

As with all of our instruments, each new Breedlove guitar is inspected by our staff upon arrival to make sure it meets our high standards of playability.

Breedlove offers an almost dizzying array of models to choose from, as well as unique body sizes. Here is a quick guide to the current series and body sizes:
